Fair-campaign committee rules against Rye town Republicans

Reporter: LAZY LIZ SADLER (esadler@lohud.com or 914-694-3525)

Dateline: RYE TOWN

Town Republicans distributed an unfair campaign flier and made unsubstantiated accusations in a newspaper opinion letter, the county Fair Campaign Practices Committee has ruled....

.....Morabito said the complaints he filed with the committee were among many untruths lodged by the Republican campaign.

"We could have done a lot more than this, but I only gave them the most egregious complaints," Morabito said. "This campaign from the start is exaggerated and has explored various ways to get the message across without being held liable. … We just go to the point where we said enough is enough, and that's why we filed."

BUT AS USUAL LAZY LIZ SADLER DID NOT GET ALL OF STORY.

THE WESTCHESTER COUNTY FAIR CAMPAIGN PRACTICES COMMITTEE FOUND THAT JOE "THE HARVARD EDUCATED FOOL" CARVIN AND HIS REPUBLICAN HAD USED UNFAIR CAMPGAIN PRACTICES THREE TIMES.

LAZY LIZ SADLER MUST HAVE GOTTEN TIRED WRITTING HER STORY, BECAUSE SHE ONLY REPORTED ON TWO OF JOE "THE HARVARD EDUCATED FOOL" CARVIN'S UNFAIR CAMPGAIN PRACTICES.

10/23/07 - Village of Mamaroneck Wants To Be More Like Port Chester

Village of Mamaroneck replaces legal team in Jewish school case.



MAMARONECK - After losing a federal appeal last week in a case against an Orthodox Jewish School, the village said yesterday that it is consulting with a new law firm on how to proceed.
"We approach every case with the intention of winning and that doesn't always happen," Mayor Phil Trifiletti said. "This was a very complicated case."



Last week, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a lower court decision that the village zoning board violated a land-use law against religious discrimination in turning down the Westchester Day School's expansion project. Trifiletti said law firm Thacher Proffitt and Wood would no longer handle the case....



... The board adopted a resolution yesterday 5-0 creating a staff attorney position.
"It's time to fix a wheel that's been broken for a very long time," Trustee Toni Pergola Ryan said.



A salary has not been set for the position, but Murphy said a safe estimate would be$160,000. The figure was based on what Port Chester, a neighboring village with a similar makeup to Mamaroneck, pays its attorney. Murphy added the attorney could also require ...

10/23/07 - Port Chester Based USA Bank cited for violations

Fred A. DeCaro Jr., chairman and chief executive officer of the Port Chester-based USA Bank.

Banking regulators ordered USA Bank in Port Chester to stop violations of state banking regulations and address problems that have included inadequate management, staffing and training.

The state Banking Department said "unsafe and unsound banking practices" were discovered during a joint examination of the bank performed by representatives from the banking department and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.

USA Bank, which opened in December 2005 with a single branch in Port Chester and whose stock became publicly traded last year, is one of the newest financial institutions in Westchester County.

Yet the Banking Department said it found USA Bank was operating with poor management oversight, a poorly qualified staff and inadequate audit processes. Other problems cited by regulators included the lack of a comprehensive strategic plan and budget; inadequate training programs for the board, management and staff; insufficient information technology procedures; and inadequate policies to meet federal information security standards...

10/22/07 Chow Hound Review - Glorious Goat at a Port Chester Taqueria

A gorgeous goat taco promises further greatness on the menu at Los Paisanos.

Goatiness sings out loud and clear in big pieces of tender, long-cooked meat. Chopped onion and cilantro and thick, fiery salsa verde complete this superb authentic taco. Carnitas, though not as good, is also worth a try—richly flavorful, if not as moist and succulent as it could be.

Expect gracious but English-challenged service and one of the more divey settings on Port Chester’s diverse Latin American scene, marked only by a hand-drawn sign.

10/21/07 - Obituary - Singer Teresa Brewer

Singer Teresa Brewer established herself as a big voice in a petite package with the novelty hit "Music! Music! Music!" in the 1950s.

Jazz Music News: Jazz music, count basie - October 21

Teresa Brewer, 76, a bold-voiced singer whose novelty hit "Music! Music! Music!" established her as a jukebox favorite in the 1950s and secured her four-decade career performing in nightclubs and on Las Vegas stages, died Oct. 17 at her home in New Rochelle, N.Y. She had progressive supranuclear palsy, a brain disorder.

Ms. Brewer was a veteran radio performer at 19, when "Music! Music! Music!" became a pop-chart smash in 1950 with its bouncy Dixieland-ensemble backup and command to "put another nickel in, in the nickelodeon."

After a period of similar fare, she won over audiences as a balladeer singing "Till I Waltz Again With You" (which reportedly sold more than 1.4 million copies), "Let Me Go, Lover" and "A Sweet Old-Fashioned Girl."

Her voice was startlingly brassy for a 5-foot-2, 100-pound singer, and the disparity prompted jokes. Referring to a brash nightclub performer, entertainer Bing Crosby joked that Ms. Brewer was the "Sophie Tucker of the Girl Scouts." Time magazine called Ms. Brewer "a topnotch singer with a voice somewhere between a blowtorch and a cello."

A striking brunette -- later a blond -- she was cast as a star of the musical western film "Those Redheads from Seattle" (1953) and was a mainstay of television variety shows for several years.....

....She was credited as co-author of several songs, including "I Love Mickey," a novelty tune she recorded with New York Yankees center-fielder Mickey Mantle in 1956.

Her first marriage, to William Monahan, ended in divorce. Thiele, whom she married in 1972, died in 1996.

Survivors include four children from her first marriage, Kathleen Monahan-Granzen of Rye Brook, N.Y., Susan M. Dorot of White Plains, N.Y., Megan Ahearn of Port Chester, N.Y., and Michelle McCann of New Rochelle; a stepson, Bob Thiele Jr. of California; a brother; four grandsons; and five great-grandchildren.

10/22/07 - Why is Blackwater, a privatizied militia, currently facing legal scrutiny for various massacres in Iraq, training Port Chester Police Dept.

Blackwater Mercenary at New Orleans Residence

Blackwater Training US Police

Blackwater is also planning to establish regional training centers in Potrero, California and Mount Carroll, Illinois, billed as Blackwater West and Blackwater North, respectively.

These training centers, in addition to Blackwater's Lodge and Training Center in Moyock, North Carolina -- Blackwater East -- and a possible fourth rumored to be slated for the Pacific Northwest -- Blackwater Northwest -- may result in the establishment of a network of Blackwater-trained police, sheriffs, and other police units around the country.

Given Blackwater's Dismal record on Human rights and Brutality, this spells trouble for civilian control of police and paramilitary forces in the United States, from major metropolitan areas to small rural towns.

Did Port Chester Police Train With Blackwater?

Will Port Chester Police officers who have been trained in Blackwater techniques transition from "Protect and serve" to "Kill them All, God will find his own".

Here are some of the courses offered to local Police departments..

http://www.policeone.com/training/Blackwater-USA/

Who on the previous 7 - 0 Republican Port Chester Republican Board approved or knew about Port Chester being involved with Blackwater.

Everyone is against corrupt cops, bad government contractors, killer mercenaries, scummy nepotism and lame scumbag lawmakers, but...

How in the heck did Port Chester Police Department and Blackwater get together.

Nobody knows who brought Blackwater to Port Chester.

But a few people around Port Chester have been playing Six Degrees Of Separation.

One chain of connections goes like this.

The Port Chester Chief Of Police has to admit that he knows Aldo "The Patronage Boy" Vitagliano ***.

Now Aldo "The Patronage Boy" Vitagliano *** is always taking over the Capitol Theatre, because he is heavily involved in ponzi like soap selling scheme know as Amway.

Now the Amway co-founder is Richard DeVos.

Now Mr. DeVos's daughter in law's maiden name was Elizabeth "Betsy" Prince.

Sister Of Erik Prince the founder, Chairman and CEO of Blackwater.

The first U.S. soldiers to arrive on the scene after the incident told military investigators they found no evidence contractors were fired upon, a source familiar with a preliminary U.S. military report told CNN.

The soldiers found evidence suggesting the guards fired on cars attempting to leave and found weapon casings on the scene matching only those used by U.S. military and contractors, the military source said.....

**** Note About Aldo "The Patronage Boy" Vitagliano

Yes it is true that Aldo "The Patronage Boy" Vitagliano is an Amway salesman.

Who in their right mind is going to hire an Amway salesman to be their lawyer?

Now you know why Aldo needs so much patronage from Port Chester.

This is just one mans opinion. I could be wrong.

Maybe its a good thing that Blackwater is involved with the Port Chester Police Department.

Maybe its a good idea to hire a lawyer that sells over priced soap on the side.

10/21/07 - Home sales in Port Chester crash to 20-year low

Port Chester Area homes sales sank to a two-decade low in September, as tighter lending standards walloped an already-declining market.

Port Chester Realtors have said it was the slowest September that anyone can remember.

Port Chester has suffered month after month of declining sales.

The credit crunch hit with a vengeance in mid-August, as lenders backed away from jumbo loans - those over $350,000. Since home sales typically take about 30 days to close, the fallout hit the September sales data. Tighter standards for jumbos had a particular impact in the Port Chester Area, where, by necessity, most home mortgages are jumbos.

Port Chester median price also been has been hurt by the 13 1/2% School Tax Increase.

But with reckless Hedge Funds causing a credit crunch. It has made it harder and more expensive for potential Port Chester residents to get a larger mortgage, that is needed in Port Chester.


When you combine the price difference (for jumbos) with the restrictions in underwriting guidelines, and the massive school tax increase, that was a triple whammy that has devastated the Port Chester Real Estate market.

Goldie Solomon has repeatedly said that "All levels of Government need to reduce taxes, because we are headed for a recession."

Westchester County, Port Chester Public Schools, Blind Brook Schools, The Village Of Port Chester and the Village Of Rye Brook have all increased taxes the last two years.

The Town of Rye is one of a few Westchester governmental and school bodies that has reduced taxes this year.

The Town Of Rye is the only Westchester governmental or school body that has reduced taxes two years in a row.

Why isn't the hopelesslly biased We$tmore $nooze reporting on the fact that Port Chester home buyers have struggled to get loans?


Why hasn't the hopelessly biased We$tmore $nooze reported that the outrageous 13 1/2% School Tax increase has helped cause a dire Port Chester Housing Market that will get worse?

10/21/07 - Port Chester woman critically hurt in I-84 collision in Southeast

SOUTHEAST - A Port Chester woman was in critical condition yesterday at Danbury Hospital after her sport utility vehicle collided with a tractor-trailer on Interstate 84, state police said.
Police initially said the crash appeared to involve a fatality but this afternoon said that Cheryl M. Bagdan, 52, was in critical condition after the 8:30 a.m. accident.


Investigator Ricky Peets said Bagdan was merging from Interstate 684 onto eastbound Interstate 84 when she apparently lost control of her 2004 GMC Yukon on the ramp, which curves sharply. The car continued onto I-84, where it was struck by a 2002 Volvo tractor-trailer driven by William T. Laffey of Pittsburgh, 32, which was in the left lane.


Laffey was not injured but Bagdan had to be extricated from her car......

10/21/07 - Talkin' Trash: Reduce And Rejoice. It's About Time That We Started Doing Stories On The Port Chester Trash Problem.

I received an email about the trash problem in Port Chester.

The email read as follows......

hey. just wanted to say great job on the roundup.

just wondering if ever think of running a story on the terrible port chester trash. how every wednesday port chester has more trash then the towns and villages around.its because of the overcrowding in houses. no one in port chester ever does anything about it. all the high power "officials" worry about themselves.never have they down anything for this town but raise the damn taxes.

PS- its great reading the roundup online and not paying!! keep up the great work!!

This person is 100% Correct.

I know the current administration and village manager has taken steps to try and solve the problem, but in my opinion they have not done enough.

In fact, I think the current trash plans are too punitive to the single family homeowners.

I personally think the problem is mostly with the multi-family and commercial property owners.

The trash problem is easy to measure.

All one has to do is look at the monthly weight totals at the dump and compare it to the year before.

The Village Manager and the elected officials are either reducing the trash costs or they are not.

All one has to do is go through the commercial district and see the abuse that goes on.

On Mill Street you will see car parts and several bumpers put to the curb for free pickup.

On Westchester Avenue, you will see file cabinets, desks and other office equipment put on the curb for free pick up.

Plus you have illegal multi-family houses putting out trash for two, three and four families.

However, these illegal multi-family houses are paying taxes for one family unit.

The single family homeowners of Port Chester are subsidising the trash pick up of commercial and illegal multi-family units.

All this is doing is increasing the profit margins of commercial businesses and property owners.

Yet the Village Of Port Chester wants to get tough with single family homeowners.

This is just not fair.

This is just one mans opinion, and I could be wrong.

Personally, I would like to hear what other Port Chester residents and businesses think about the trash problem in Port Chester.

10/19/07 - Joe "The Harvard Educated Fool" Carvin Explains How Greedy Hedge Fund Guys Have Made The Real Estate Market And Economy Collapse

Supervisor Wanna Be Joe "The Harvard Educated Fool" Carvin

Dear Port Chester Residents,

I know many of you are distressed about how greedy hedge fund guys have made foolish and risky sub-prime mortgage investments that have caused your house to loose value.

Worse yet some Port Chester residents have been forced into bankruptcy, because of the hedge fund mess.

Please don't blame me or my greedy hedge fund friends. It is your own damn fault for taking that hedge fund backed subprime loan.

But don't worry about my investments or me, because the Federal Reserve Chairman is going to use your tax dollars to bail out the subprime mortgage and hedge fund industry.

You might lose your house, but us hedge fund guys wont lose a dime. Remember rank has privilege. Beside I and the Federal Reserve Chairman expect you to pick your self up by the boot straps.

Now many of you have accused me of being insensitive and unconcerned about what was happened to the Port Chester Real Estate Market.

So I am going to put down all of these copies of the Town Crier that I always read from and speak to you off the cuff.

I know that this will make Bernie "I Forgot To Pay Over 100 Property Tax Bills" Abel mad, but I want to try and make you think that I feel your pain.

Besides, I am really getting tired of repeating the Town Crier lies month after month after month.

As you know a hedge fund guy like myself uses a proprietary investing tool, that I like to call a dart board.

Last month the dart landed on international gold investments.

Once the dart has chosen the asset class I like to use a unique digital computer investment model.

Unfortunately, the digital computer investment model was not as unique as I thought. It looks like all of us "Harvard Educated Fools" were given the same digital computer model in Economics 101.

Basically, thousands of "Harvard Educated Fools" like myself are using the same dice. At "Harvard we were told that the technical term for this a "Crowed Trade.

You may also hear the guys down at Vinny's Lunch refer to it as "Climbing On A Bandwagon Headed For A Brick Wall".

It sort of reminds you of my campaign to be the Rye Town Stupidvisor.

Any how, back to that digital computer model that us hedge fund guys used to create the subprime mortgage disaster that is destroying the Port Chester real estate market.

Basically, As our alpha generation collapses, our beta has turned negative, our delta hedging has gone toxic and, trust me, you do not want to hear about our gamma.

Hopefully, You can appreciate that accurate pricing is essential for evaluating my investment strategies. This has proven to be extremely challenging in recent days. Previously, I have relied on Bob, the sales guy USA Bank on Irving Avenue.

Bob assured me the securities were still worth 100 percent of face value, so everything was cool. Bob sold the collateralized debt obligations me in the first place, so he knows what he’s talking about.

Bob, however, appears to have had a nervous breakdown, judging by the maniacal laughter that greeted my requests for price verification this week.

I therefore decided to implement an in-house valuation report, using a technique the Abel's And The Westmore News like to call “making things up,”

However, this proved unsatisfactory.

Currently, all of the portfolios I manage are undergoing a rigorous screening known as “crossing my fingers and praying that we don’t have to try and find a bid in this market.”

This is supplemented by a cross-market statistical analysis originally developed by the U.S. military called “don’t ask, don’t tell.”This “unmarking-to-unmarket” procedure has been the benchmark for the hedge-fund industry for the past, ooh, few weeks.

I have, of course, been in touch with the rating companies to update our default-probability scenarios, particularly on the AAA rated investments I own. They recommended a forecasting method using stochastics to regress the drift-to-downgrade timescales for the past 100 years and throw them forward for the next five minutes.

The technical term for this is “induction,”though those of you of a less quantitative bent may know it as“making a wild ass guess.”

I am very pleased to report that, contrary to what current market prices might suggest, all of our houses will continue to have some value. Provided, that is, the future performance of the underlying collateral is identical to its history.

Otherwise, the credit rating companies and Realtors say our homes are likely to be reclassified as “toast.”

Personally, I have also been checking on my back-up credit lines with my friends in the investment-banking world. As soon as they return my calls, I’ll be able to update you on my emergency liquidity position.

Please Don't worry, I am sure more credit is available.

On the business side of my life, some of my investors have written to me asking for their money back, citing clauses in my fund documentation called redemption rights.

Frankly, I never expected you to actually read that prospectus, which came prepackaged when I bought the Microsoft-Hedge-Fund-Guy-Software.

I certainly have no idea what all those long words mean.

I have filed your letters in a special drawer in the filing cabinet marked “trash” for now.

Do you have any idea how much trouble you all would be in if I actually sold this stuff in the market today? At these crazy prices? Fuhgeddaboudit. You’ll thank me later.

Speaking of crazy prices, I know you’ll be thrilled to learn that I have been sending out invitations to a bunch of rich guys like Bruno "Spot Zone" Gioffre and Gary "I Made Over A Million Bucks At Horton School" Gianfrancesco.

I am asking Bruno "Spot Zone" Gioffre and Gary " I Made Over Million Bucks At Horton School" Gianfrancesco to participate in this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

I also have calls out to Aldo "The Patronage Boy" Vitagliano and the Rye City Republican Chairman Anthony "I Only Got 3/4 Of A Million Dollars Of Tax Money" Pisonere.

But this is not a rescue. Do not even think the word rescue. This is an opportunity. Not a rescue. An opportunity.

In fact, I think this is such a fantastic opportunity, I have agreed to forgo my usual management fee, and I will only take half my usual slice of the profits. Provided there are any profits to slice.

You, of course, are absolutely invited to participate in this offer by sending me any extra money that you have laying around your house.

Since, the Town Of Rye has cut taxes two years in a row you may want to send those savings to me.

Finally, a word for all of you who have been kind enough to inquire about my personal financial situation. I am relieved to report that my directors and officers insurance is fully paid up.

Furthermore, my fancy sports car was paid out of the 2 percent fee I levied when you wrote your first check to me, so I will still be able to trundle into the parking lot each morning in an open-necked shirt to ignore your telephone calls and e-mails.

Plus, If you are foolish enough to vote for me in November, I will be able to draft a resolution with Port Chester Republican Chairman Billy Vilanova that will allow the Town Of Rye to invest in my hedge fund. Right now we are investing in Tajik Gold mines.

Yours,

Joe "The Harvard Educated Fool" Carvin

Just a little over a half (51 percent) end their trips in Westchester while an additional 10 percent head to Connecticut.

10/17/07 - Rye Town Meeting Notes - We$tmore $nooze Founder Once Again Dustrupts Meeting And Threatens A Police Officer

The Vendetta Continues.

Once again the founder of the hopelessly biased rag known as the We$tmoe $nooze, Bernie "I Forgot To Pay Over 100 Property Tax Bills" Abel proved that the Port Chester Police is afraid of him and his son Richard "The Rye Town Drama Queen" Abel.

Again the Rye Town Supervisor had to summon the Port Chester Police to escort Bernie "I forgot To Pay Over 100 Property Tax Bills" Abel out of the Rye Town court room.

You Don't Spit In The Wind, You Don't Pull The Mask Of The Old Long Ranger And You Don't Dare Touch Bernie

Yes, once again Bernie "I Forgot To Pay Over 100 Property Tax Bills" Abel, became enraged at a Port Chester Police Officer. Bernie actually shoved his finger in the officers face and said how dare you touch me. Bernie then demanded that the poor Port Chester police officer apologize to him.

The poor Port Chester police officer had to Kowtow to crazed Bernie and say that he was sorry.

Personally, I would have never apologized to the apparently mentally ill We$tmore $nooze founder Bernie "I Forgot To Pay Over 100 Property Tax Bills' Abel.

Instead of Kowtowing and apologizing to Bernie, the Police Officer should have restrained the We$tmore $nooze founder in a straitjacket.

I am sorry. Now please take your seat.

But the lunatic Bernie wasn't happy that the poor Police Officer apologized to him on Cable TV. No Bernie also wanted Rye Town Supervisor Bobby Moribito to apologize and Kowtow too.

Unlike many Port Chester and Rye Brook politicians, Rye Town Supervisor Moribito has never ever Kowtowed to the emotionally unstable founder of the We$tmore $nooze.

Rye Town Supervisor Bobby Moribito repeatedly told the poor Port Chester Police Officer to escort the insane Bernie out of the Rye Town Courtroom.

Deputy Rye Town Supervisor Michael Borelli also refused to be bullied by the newspaper founder that obviously suffers from a sever personality disorder.

Of coarse, Trustee Billy "I Got A GED Don't Mess With Me" Vilanova is too cowardly to open his big fat mouth when the delusional We$tmore $nooze founder starts showing every one watching cable TV that he is apparently suffering from some kind of severe psychosis .

Trustee Billy "I Got A GED Don't Mess With Me" Vilanova is very wise to try and avoid eye contact with the deranged Bernie "I Forgot To Pay Over 100 Property Tax Bills" Abel.

These psychotic outbursts by We$tmore $nooze publisher Richard "The Rye Town Drama Queen" Abel and Bernie "I Forgot To Pay Over 100 Property Tax Bills" Abel are not going to stop unless the Port Chester Chief Of Police stops giving the Abel's special treatment.

When Richard "The Rye Town Drama Queen" Abel filed a false police report the chief of police dropped everything to personally interview the Rye Town Drama Queen.

When Richard "The Rye Town Drama Queen" Abel's newspaper box was thrown into the middle of Haines Blvd. a Police Lieutenant had to go out and take the routine report.

When a rival publisher's newspaper box was being installed near a We$tmore $nooze newspaper box five or six Port Chester police cars were taken off patrol and two Rye Brook police cars drove into Port Chester to assist.

We have had gun shots ring out on the streets of Port Chester.

We have the Sur 13 the Hispanic gang controlling and openly operating on Exchange Place and a big chunk of Irving Ave.

We have had a girl raped vaginally and anally in her car on fox island road.

We have had another girl held prisoner and had her eye knocked nearly out of its socket

We have a guy getting pistol whipped in broad daylight on Midland Avenue.

We have a rash of businesses and homes being robbed.

Our Parks are defaced and destroyed a will by vandals.

Yet every month multiple Port Chester police officers have to be sent to the Rye Town Hall, because of Richard "The Rye Town Drama Queen" Able and Bernie "I Forgot To Pay Over 100 Property Tax Bills" Abel.

The Port Chester Police Officers only feel compelled to Kowtow to Bernie and Richard Abel, because the Port Chester Police Chief Kowtows to the We$tmore $nooze and the Abels.

But the Port Chester Chief Of Police has a history of being political.

When ex-Port Chester School Board President Domenic "I Did Not Edit The Racist Flier" Bencivenga moved out of New York State for six months without resigning from the school board.

It was the hopelessly biased We$tmore $nooze who refused to report the story.

It was also the very political Port Chester Chief of Police that helped Dominic "I Did Not Edit The Racist Flier" Bencivenga find a little apartment .***

It is political crap like this that causes the outrageous 13 1/2% school tax increase that is destroying Port Chester.

This political crap is also cause the horrific crime wave that is destroying Port Chester

This political crap is also allowing Richard and Bernie to cause public disruptions at will.

The Port Chester Chief Of Police should be working with the Village Manager to stop this horrific crime wave.

The Port Chester Chief Of Police should be working with the Village Manager to start that Police Squad that is going to shut down the illegal and dangerous apartments.

The Port Chester Chief Of Police should not be, nor should he allow his officers to Kowtow to the Abel's just because they have a hopelessly biased rag known as the Wetmore News.

This is just one man's opinion.

I could be wrong, but you should probably call up 939-6864 and tell Bernie "I forgot to pay over 100 property tax Bills" Abel to cancel your subscription to the hopelessly biased Westmore News.

**** Note About Dominic "I Did Not Edit The Racist Flier" Bencivenga's little Apartment

The Good news is that Mr. Bencivenga has decided not to abandon his family for some cheap tart and has returned home.

10/17/07 - A resident of 511 Midland Ave. called police when she arrived home at 6:25 last night, saying there was "a stranger inside her house,"

HEADLINE:

All About Food: Delights of raw artisanal cheeses

STORY:

You meet the nicest people when writing about food and you get the occasional delectable perk like being invited to special tastings. Recently, Sapphire held a cheese and wine tasting for 5 Spoke Creamery, a new, small, artisanal producer of organic, raw milk cheeses from New York State. Sapphire Pantry is currently the only venue in California where it can be purchased.

The charming and enthusiastic Alan Glustoff, the cheese maker, was a former food scientist who worked on developing such things as Cool Whip and Pudding Pops at General Foods. His lifelong interest in food changed direction and he became a specialty food broker and more recently a cheese maker.

He launched 5 Spoke Creamery because he wanted to bring packaged, hand-made, small batch cheeses to the supermarket in order to "bridge the great divide between the perceived qualities of cheeses found in the supermarket dairy and deli sections and those cut to order at specialty food shops."

On his small farm in Port Chester, New York, he raises grass-fed Holstein cows that are free of pesticides and hormones and are certified kosher......
